• Is the character present in the Dark Rendevous audiobook? If so, it needs to be added to the list of appearances. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:00, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Listened to it a 2nd time just to be sure, his part was cut. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• I've just checked, CSWE provides pronouns for Evan Chan (he/him) which need to be listed in the article's infobox. The appropriate category needs to be added as well. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:00, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Added. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• In contrast to the above, CWSE does NOT provide a gender, so that needs to be cited to something else or removed if none of the sources provide it. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:00, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • I'm quite new to this process. Both the novel and CWSE states he went inside the men's refresher, would that count? ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
    • That should be good. I don't recall seeing that in CWSE when I checked it but citing it to YDR should work. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 18:54, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
      • Cool. It's already tagged with reference to YDR. ToRsO bOy (talk) 07:16, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
• Are there any quotes that can be added to the Biography, P+T, and Equipment sections? - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:02, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • "Odd" was his only line in the novel. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• Provide context for Yoda's mission. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:08, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Added ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• Environmental hydrographer seems notable enough for an article. - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:10, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Created ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• (Review note) Copy-edit - Thannus (DFaceG) (he/him) (talk) 07:08, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Appreciate the review! ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

• The Behind the scenes section is missing.
  • I knew I forgot something. Added ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• The intro currently makes up almost 35% of the article. Please trim it down.
  • Reduced. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• The New Essential Chronology apparently does not mention Chan, so the date note will need to be expanded, explaining how the book dates those events to 19 BBY.
  • Added ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
    • It is now inconsistent between 19 BBY and ABY. LucaRoR ^(Talk) 13:31, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
      • I dunno what it is with my brain, it always types in ABY instead of BBY. Fixed. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:38, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• The image depicts Yoda fighting with a lightsaber, which doesn't seem to have a connection with the article. Please, choose a different image and explain in the caption how Yoda is relevant to the article. For example: "Yoda (depicted) was seen by Chan while disguised as an R2 unit." LucaRoR ^(Talk) 12:49, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
  • I replaced it with the image closest to the novel's timeline sans the lightsaber. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:17, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
    • Nice. However, please note that a full stop should be used in the caption if a full sentence is written. LucaRoR ^(Talk) 13:31, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
      • Added a period. Thanks. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:38, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
• Please use the second ref note to reference his pronouns when first used in the body if the novel doesn't mention them. LucaRoR ^(Talk) 17:17, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
  • The novel calls Evan "him". Should I leave it as it is, or is there a rule about the ref in the infobox has to be the same in the body?ToRsO bOy (talk) 17:34, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
    • Yes, the infobox's reference should be consistent with the one in the body. LucaRoR ^(Talk) 15:36, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
      • I've replaced the ref on the body to match. Thanks. ToRsO bOy (talk) 04:58, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
      • If the novel does call him "him", the CSWE reference in both cases can just be replaced with the novel citation. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 23:58, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
        • Is it ok if I left it as it is? It'll be hard to try and source CUSWE anywhere else in the article. ToRsO bOy (talk) 13:28, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
          • If the above is the case you wouldn't need to source CSWE anywhere else and could eliminate the ref entirely, for clutter purposes, and change the infobox he/him ref to the novel. It's precedent to minimize sources when can be done.—spookywilloww^talk 18:20, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
            • I see. Good to know. I've edited the pronoun reference and removed CUSWE ToRsO bOy (talk) 14:51, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

• I'd recommend moving the image to the bio's second paragraph and moving it to the right so that it looks like this. I think it'd look much better, but happy to strike this objection if you disagree.
  • Moved. ToRsO bOy (talk) 11:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
    • FYI, I increased the image size to 300px since the image was a bit small. We normally use that image size. Samonic ^(Talk) 11:54, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
      • I could never figure out the appropriate sizing for photos so I tend to just copy them as is. Thanks for the assist. It does look better. ToRsO bOy (talk) 12:06, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
• Context for Coruscant in the bio.
  • Added ToRsO bOy (talk) 11:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
    • The context should be consistent. In the intro, you call it a planet. In the body, you say it's the galactic capital. Samonic ^(Talk) 11:54, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
      • Edited the intro. ToRsO bOy (talk) 12:06, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
• When linking to Jedi Master, you shouldn't do it like this: [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] [[Jedi Master/Legends|Jedi Master]]. You should only link to the Jedi Master page.
  • Fixed ToRsO bOy (talk) 11:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
• The R2 unit Yoda traps is notable for an article.
  • Created ToRsO bOy (talk) 11:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
• The BTS doesn't need to mention Chan's BTS entry. Samonic ^(Talk) 13:29, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Removed ToRsO bOy (talk) 11:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
• The BtS doesn't really say that Chan appeared in Dark Rendezvous, can you reword it? Samonic ^(Talk) 11:54, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
  • Reworded ToRsO bOy (talk) 12:06, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
